[mythtv-users] Myth-TV easy beginner question

I have used gentoo in the past.  I have been using Fedora Core 4 since 
april on all of my myth machines
and am really impressed atrpms the mythtv fedora rpm repository.


Some of my friends just starting out are using Knoppmyth and really 
appreciate how easy it is to install. They have said Knoppmyth is really 
great for learning  your way around myth for one reason, if they hosed 
their configuration or device drivers it took literally 10 minutes to 
restore
using the knoppmyth install and start over rather than debugging for who 
knows how long.



Good luck.
